UCC paradigm based on Web 2.0 has made new business models and came to the forefront as a commercial media. The purpose of this study is to analyze the customer attitudes toward UCC and its effects as a commercial media. Based on prior studies of Internet and Web advertising, informativeness, entertainment, irritation, trust, usefulness, ease of use, incentives, and flow were identified as affecting factors of the attitude of UCC advertising. Results show that informativeness, entertainment, irritation, trust, ease of use, and flow are significantly related to the attitude of UCC advertising, but usefulness and incentives are not. Customer attitude toward UCC advertising was also found to be significantly related to the such effects as brand attitude, word of mouth, and intention to buy. This study contributes to improve the understanding of UCC as a commercial media and provides the base of activation strategies for it.

Purpose: Online and social media and mobile shopping are increasing and companies are required to provide personal information in order to supplement the non-invasive characteristics of the channels. With the increased provision of personal information, consumers' personal and social concerns about the prevention of personal information infringement are also increasing, and in response, personal or opt-in marketing has emerged to compensate for reckless information abuse. Despite the background of this emergence, the existing prior studies are limited to ignoring the negative feelings of consumers in the real world, including only the net function and positive effect of the opt-in mail. Research design, data and methodology: The research framework was intended to utilize the impact of human marketing activities on consumer attitudes combined with positive and negative factors. Factors that positively affect attitudes toward permation marketing were presented, such as informality, and perceived risks were presented as negative impact factors. Also, based on previous prior research, the prior factors of opt-in marketing were to present the effect on purchase intent through the medium of attitude toward opt-in marketing. Results: In this study, we used the framework of a two factor theory to address positive and negative factors as a leading factor in the customer attitude toward opt-in mail advertising, and as a result, functionality and personalization have a positive effect on customer attitude and perceived risk have a negative impact on customer attitude. In addition, it was confirmed that the customer attitude formed this way affects the intention to purchase again. Conclusions: This study suggests that we have demonstrated that marketing, an opt-in marketing that has been recognized as part of marketing that is deployed after obtaining customer consent, has been applied without any other marketing methodology. E-mail advertising at this point also provides practical implications that the system safeguards are in place under an opt-in protocol or system, and that even if an e-mail advertisement is carried out, customers will need to look at the level of awareness about the risks, and suggests that they need to consider the customer's journey that could lead to purchase at the content level.

Purpose - New technologies allow service providers to integrate all the customer information within and between contact channels so that they can offer individualized services. The availability of new mobile devices enables retailers to interact with customers through countless channels (Rigby, 2011). The objective of this research is to examine customers' attitudes toward O2O (on-line to off-line) services and their intention to use based on the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). Research design, data, and methodology - Utilizing the TAM model, the mediating effect of the users' attitudes toward O2O services on the relationship among perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, perceived risks and intention to use are to be investigated. Results - The result shows that the perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, perceived risks have a significant effect on customers' attitudes toward O2O services. It is also revealed that the attitude toward O2O services has a mediating effect among perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, perceived risks and intention to use. Conclusions - The boundary between on-line and off-line is eroding and various services based on the O2O platform are growing. The results of this study and managerial implications can be applied to O2O platform operators or enterprises planning to sharp on their competitiveness edge through offering variations of service channels.

Purpose: Compared with the past when Japanese retailers used to hesitate to open their shops in the Korean market, because of anti-Japan sentiment, they show confidence in Korea in recent. This study, thus, aims at examining how socio-demographic factors have an impact on customer attitudes towards a Japanese retailer as a shopping destination. Research design, data, and methodology: After the literature review process, the authors have developed a variety of questions to verify the relationship amongst the variables like nationalism, consumer ethnocentrism, war animosity, store country-of-origin and anti-Japan sentiment. Furthermore, after collected questionnaires, the authors used confirmative factor analysis (CFA), T test and linear regression analysis to verify the 25 hypotheses developed. Results: Except for a household size element, it is found that gender, age, education and income levels are related to the degree of nationalism, ethnocentrism, war animosity, store country-of-origin and anti-Japan sentiment. In other words, socio-economic elements influenced Korean customer attitudes towards Japanese retailers. Conclusions: Korean customers tend to show different shopping attitudes towards the Japanese retailers, depending on the characteristics of socio-demographic elements. Furthermore, changing socio-demographic factors will provide positive business opportunities for Japanese retailers in the future.

서비스 산업의 성과와 경쟁우위 확보는 서비스를 생산하고 고객과의 접촉을 통해 서비스를 전달하는 서비스 접점 종업원 태도와 행동에 달려 있다고 해도 과언이 아니며 지금까지의 서비스 접점직원에 대한 대부분의 연구는 친절함이나 태도 혹은 유익함과 같은 고객들과의 접촉에 관계된 것들이다. 본 연구는 증가되는 접점 직원의 중요성에 중점을 두어 접점 직원을 하나의 브랜드로 인식하는 휴먼브랜드의 관점에서 연구를 하고자 한다. 또한 서비스 접점에서 직원의 역할 뿐만 아니라 고객참여 행동이 접점직원과의 상호작용과정에 영향을 미치고, 궁극적으로 서비스품질을 향상시킬 수 있다는 결과는 더이상 고객을 통제대상에서 제외시킬 수 없다는 결론에 이르게 되었다. 고객참여행동은 고객 스스로에게 뿐 아니라 접점직원에게도 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로도 밝혀지고 있다. 따라서 서비스 접점직원의 휴먼브랜드적 특성이 고객의 참여도를 이끌며, 이는 서비스 브랜드와의 관계와 서비스 브랜드 태도에 긍정적인 영향을 미친다는 것을 기본 이론으로 하고, 서비스 브랜드를 이용하는 고객을 대상으로 설문 조사를 진행하고 분석하였다. 서비스브랜드와 고객과의 관계 강화 형성에 미치는 영향에 있어 서비스 접점직원의 휴먼 브랜드적 특성과 고객의 자발적인 정보제공 참여도를 함께 살펴봄으로써 선행 연구들을 더 확장시킬 수 있을 것으로 판단하여 진행하였다. 연구 결과 접점직원의 휴먼 브랜드적 특성 중 신뢰성, 친숙성, 공감성이 고객과 서비스 브랜드와의 관계 강화와, 서비스 브랜드에 대한 태도에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 검증으로 기업이 마케팅에 있어 가장 중요한 부분을 차지하는 접점직원의 자질 및 특성을 검토할 수 있게 함으로써 이론적 실무적인 전략에 중요한 시사점을 제공하리라 본다.

본 연구는 대형마트의 마케팅활동 요인인 제품, 가격, 장소, 광고, 종업원 그리고 물리적 환경이 점포태도와 재방문의도에 미치는 영향을 검증하는 것에 목적이 있다. 따라서 마케팅활동 요인과 점포태도를 재방문의도 측정의 하위요인으로 선정하고 실증분석을 하였다. 분석결과, 마케팅활동 요인을 구성하는 차원 중에서 종업원, 물리적 환경, 가격 그리고 장소가 점포태도에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 대형마트에 대한 긍정적인 점포태도는 고객의 재방문의도에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구결과는 향후 대형마트들이 전통적인 가격경쟁요인 위주의 전략에서 탈피하여 비가격경쟁 요인인 종업원의 서비스, 점포자체의 물리적 환경, 장소 등의 요인을 활용한 마케팅활동이 중요한 전략요인이 될 수 있다는 시사점을 제시해주는 것이다. 나아가 본 연구의 논의는 대형마트의 마케팅 활동이 점포태도와 재방문의도에 미치는 영향 연구를 시도한 기존연구의 의미있는 확장으로 판단된다.
